Php-language-server: Installation of "php-language-server" FAILED:

[steven7mwesigwa]

Hello ,

Am trying to install this "_php-language-server_" as a requirement to use PHP IntelliSense by "_Felix Becker_" in VSCODE.

As advised on the repo page i run:

composer require felixfbecker/language-server

And i received this ERROR:

Using version ^5.0 for felixfbecker/language-server
./composer.json has been created
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - Installation request for felixfbecker/language-server ^5.0 -> satisfiable by felixfbecker/language-server[v5.0.0].
    - felixfbecker/language-server v5.0.0 requires jetbrains/phpstorm-stubs dev-master -> satisfiable by jetbrains/phpstorm-stubs[dev-master] but these conflict with your requirements or minimum-stability.


Installation failed, deleting ./composer.json.

I have php7 and composer installed. Am running _DEBIAN_ .
PLEASE.. Advise me on how to rectify this issue. Thanks in advance.

It is included in the PHP Intellisense package, you do not need to install anything else.

[felixfbecker]

This is stated in the readme.

@jens1o, Do you mean i should just ignore the "error message" ?.
Challenge is: PHP IntelliSense by @felixfbecker is installed succesfully but isn't working.......

[felixfbecker]

@steven7mwesigwa you don't have to run composer require felixfbecker/language-server. All you need is to install the PHP IntelliSense extension through the VS Code UI.

[steven7mwesigwa]

@felixfbecker Thanks for the quick reply.
But am wondering why amnot receiving the promised "Intellisense" once i have disabled the one that comes from default VSCode.
Is there anything i should look at first..?

[felixfbecker]

Do you have log output in your output panel?

[steven7mwesigwa]

@felixfbecker I just Launched VS Code Quick Open (Ctrl+P), pasted ext install felixfbecker.php-intellisense, and pressed enter. Then clicked Install, And pressed reload when it was done.
I dont know what you mean by _Output panel_

[felixfbecker]

This

[steven7mwesigwa]

@felixfbecker ... Oooh i see... Well i didn't check.
Let me Uninstall & Reinstall the Package and give you any feedback i happen to find.
Thank you for your time....

[felixfbecker]

You don't need to reinstall. There should be output there whenever you open a PHP project and open a PHP file.

[steven7mwesigwa]

@felixfbecker i guess am just unlucky...
i have tried yours and my option of re-installation but in vain. "Didn't receive any output.. installation seems to work successfully."
i just pray that may be at some point it will pick up the intellisense.
i will just use the default intellisense in the mean time....

[steven7mwesigwa]

@felixfbecker ... It now WORKS!!!!!
I simply upgraded to the latest VSCODE version...and some how it worked.
Though one other challenge is that : "_It is kinda slow_"...Basically slower than the _Default vscode php intellisense_...
I checked around... and i presume you guys are working on the "Speed Issue"
